In an attempt to save the neck of his junkie son Joe, Eddie (Nigel O’Neill) agrees to do a mysterious pick up with the help of Joe’s girlfriend
Liz. The two head off across mid Ulster and eventually find themselves in possession of a lamb. En-route they fumble their way through a
series of comic, tragic and disturbing adventures; Liz, struggling with her own drug addiction, crippling sensitivity and desire to connect with
her disabled son who lives with foster parents. Eddie, an overweight and depressed ex accountant does his best to assume the role of a drug

unexpected heroism and unlikely sightings of birds, Eddie’s dysfunctional humanity connects with Liz’s tortured past and a kind of healing
begins…
